Concentration: Double Concentrator in Environmental Studies & Religious Studies

Before Brown: Winner of Piedmont High School's English Award.

Why Brown? "Coming in with an interest in Environmental Studies, I knew that Brown's location was ideal for looking at ecosystem health in an urban environment. I also like that the open curriculum allows me to draw connections between other concentrations and my own."
